Cano, a former Staten Island Yankee, has since joined the Seattle Mariners, sporting a 10-year, $240 million contract -- the length and terms of the deal much to much for what the Yankees had in mind.

Cano's dogging it on occasion is something the public has already known, and why Long would come out and take shots at the former Yankee is anyone's guess.

Some Yankee fans would agree with Long's take, while others feel Cano's good points far outweighed his bad ones.

One such fan is SILive.com user, EyeSpie005, whose remarks are Tuesday's "Sports Comment of the Day."

EyeSpie005 said: "I've never heard a single play or in game moment identified in which Cano's hustle hurt the team. His contributions by far outweigh anything perceived as negative due to lack of hustle. I have seen him bust it many times to make incredible plays on pop ups that other infielders don't get close to. People *want* to see hustle, but never translate that into real in-game results. I'd take his game and lack of hustle any time over any Yankee I've ever seen at 2B."

Do you agree with EyeSpie005 or think that Cano's lack of hustle was the reason the Yankees didn't attempt to re-sign him? Sound off by leaving a comment below!
